Chapter 5 Like A Virgin
- ~ Audrey ~
- “I can’t believe I’m ditching my own party, my dad’s gonna flip if he finds out…” Audrey looked from side to side, making sure that no one was following them.
- “Let’s just make sure that he won’t,” the brothers replied simply.
- It was Audrey’s home, but Caspian was leading the charge. The three of them scaled up the stairs and jumped out of a window, climbing up to the roof of the building via the fire exit. It was a hard maneuver with heels and a dress, but the brothers lent each of their hands and Audrey took them.
- The next thing she knew, she was standing on the rooftop of her townhouse.
- “I knew it. These old townhouses always have a nice rooftop,” Caspian walked around and inspected the edges. They were about four stories up from the ground.
- “Wow, I’ve lived here for years and I’ve never even been up here,” Audrey took note of the bright full moon above them and the skyline of New York City in front of them.
- “How long have you lived here?” Killian asked.
- “Since I was born. I only moved out a couple of years ago for college,” Audrey replied, she found a cozy spot on a corner and took a seat.
- “Where to?” Killian took the seat to her left.
- “Gramercy Park East,”
- “The white building by the park?” Caspian took the seat to her right.
- “That’s the one,” she nodded.
- “That’s a nice place,” Killian said.
- “Yeah,”
- “Cheers to you, princess, happy twenty first birthday,” Caspian took out a bottle of champagne he had stolen from the party below. He popped the bottle open and chugged some of the spills before giving the bottle to Audrey.
- “Thanks,” she took the bottle and drank a sip. It tasted nice and bubbly, but also a little too strong for her. She wasn’t much of a drinker, she was barely twenty one and she had always followed the rules, meaning she didn’t really drink alcohol at all.
- “So, what are you studying in college?” Killian received the bottle from Audrey and took a sip.
- “Creative writing,”
- “Are you a writer?” he said as he gave the bottle back to her.
- “No, not yet,” she took another sip and choked back the bitter taste.
- “Why not?” he asked.
- “Because I haven’t got any interesting stories to tell yet,” she shrugged.
- The brothers exchanged a look as if they didn’t believe her.
- “What?” she asked.
- “I doubt that. I’m pretty sure a girl like you has lived quite a life,” Killian smiled meaningfully.
- “What does that mean?” she questioned him.
- He looked at her meaningfully and said, “Come on, tell me, what’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done,”
- “No,” she shook her head quickly.
- “Tell us. And then I’ll go and Cas will go too,” Killian pressed on.
- She looked to Caspian on her left and to Killian on her right. She thought about it for a moment and said, “No, you guys go first,”
- “Well… okay,” Killian nodded. “Craziest thing I’ve ever done, when I was eighteen I almost crashed a plane,”
- “A plane?” she gaped.
- “I just got my flying license and I was excited to fly my first flight alone. I went up, everything was fine, then suddenly there was a machine malfunction. Everything lit up like wildfire and the plane started going down. It went so far down, I almost hit like a mountain. Luckily, I caught the error in time and navigated back to my route. I was pretty damn lucky,”
- “Wow…” her mouth formed an ‘O’ as she listened to his story.
- “So, when I was sixteen, I banged four hot chicks in the bathroom of the Louvre in Paris,” Caspian said nonchalantly.
- “You did what?” Audrey almost spat the champagne in her mouth. What a lady, she thought to herself.
- “Not at the same time, they took turns, but it was like minutes apart, you know what I mean?” Caspian kept going.
- Audrey turned to Killian and he just shrugged, as if to say, ‘that’s my brother for you’.
- “I swear, true story,” Caspian said again, “And after that time I popped my dick. Fucking hurt like hell. And that’s the craziest thing I’ve ever done,”
- Audrey was fascinated. She never knew that a guy’s dick could… pop?
- “Sadly, I can attest to that. He’s telling the truth,” Killian nodded to his brother.
- “Oh wow… Just wow,” she gaped at both brothers. What a character, she thought.
- “So, what’s yours?” Caspian asked.
- “Yeah, we’ve told you ours. Tell us yours,” Killian added.
- Audrey took a moment and drew a deep breath. “Well… uh… this one time, my friend Olivia and I were at Whole Foods… we were so hungry but we left our wallets in the car, so we stole some bananas and oat milk, we put it under our jackets and just walked out. It was so… intense,”
- Audrey smiled sheepishly, but the brothers held a ‘are you serious’ look on their faces.
- “No,” Killian denied.
- “No, come on. Tell us a real story,” Caspian followed.
- “I swear, I don’t have any stories interesting to tell,” she groaned.
- “How about your love life? Your kinks or whatever?” Caspian asked.
- “Kinks…?” Audrey wasn’t sure of what that meant.
- Caspian’s eyes lit up and he turned to Killian, smacking his brother on the arm and said, “Bro, I think this girl’s a virgin,”
- “No, she’ can’t be,” Killian chuckled. Turning to Audrey, he said, “You’re not a virgin. You can’t be,”
- “What does that supposed to mean?” Audrey narrowed her eyes at him.
- “Means he thinks you’re too pretty to be a virgin,” Caspian answered.
